Also tried the Awesome pop up video app last night, the XDA version.

Cut my SoT in half literally, I timed it and I got 3 minutes every 1%, normally it;s 6 to even 7 minutes with other use. The phone heated up as well. Deinstalled and rebooted, no ty. :( I tried googling but nobody had an issue with halved battery due to Awesome pop up video, the app itself doesn't even consume that much, just 2%, but I think it's the heating up of the phone somehow? I got lagg sometimes as well.

I see you around here a lot, which is nice. :D At least it makes me not feel like users here check the forums once every decade.
[X Play General] Chaotick:
Current settings because i like the speed in which it works - Latest CrDroid and Squid kernel on stock kernel settings settings. Pushing the phone as hard as i can with YT and mails, messager and facebook. Now at 1:40 SOT and 79% battery from 100%. Will leave these settings for a week for it to settle in after couple of charging cycles.

All in all the results which are presented in this topic with lionfish and other governors as well as downclocking the are amazing.
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
These forums have saved me and enlighghened MD on so many occasions that I owe it to the awesome community of X Players to be here as often as I can.

I'll try to update the OP with some other settings once different setups roll in and we all test them out. this will save some time in searching through the thread.

:D
[X Play General] coolkingler1:
DO you know about the Awesome video player app battery drain? :P I posted it on this page but maybe our X Play's weren't designed for it? Too weak maybe?
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
I have no idea what that app is. It sounds like it's pretty resource-heavy. What are some of the reviews like for that app? Do any other people report the same type of drain?
[X Play General] dev>null:
I'm sticking with the tweaked conservative settings posted a few posts earlier! Great great great battery life and snappy performance ...even in games ;)
[X Play General] coolkingler1:
Not 1 person. But I am probably the first to test it with a X Play. http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-pop-video-floating-window-t3039872

[X Play General] coolkingler1:
There aren't. :P I think. If there are they probably suck, like very bad, this one actually was flawless except for the drain.

If I could squeeze 7 hours SOT after 72 hours on I'd be happy. :D I hope the new 6.0.1 custom kernels come out soon! Come on squid and ander!
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
Looks like I did get that 7 hours SOT with over 72 hours! Woohoo!

Very interesting guide how to tweak the most used stock governor of all smartphones. My first few tries after reading this guide gave me already some real nice results. Both useful for performance and battery savers.

Hey. Thanks for sharing that but my battery is at 35% and the big cluster is shut down completely. All 4 cores. Only the small ones are running. Do you know how to make it not switch off?
[X Play General] Chaotick:
What are your kernel settings ? Or is it just fully stock unmodded android 6.0.1 ?
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
Oh sorry I forgot to type in all that. Unmodded but root stock 6.0.1
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Maybe because im using stock rom.
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Have you tried disabling battery saving feature. You can also disable "core control" in kernel adiutor and reanable them one by one in the CPU section of kernel adiutor. Seems like a little bug, because normal its enabled by default in stock rom. If this doesn't help I should try a factory reset or flash another kernel like squid r16.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
Yeah the battery saver is off. Today I noticed the big cores were on when the battery was at 19% :/

It's confusing. I'll disable core control and check it's behavior.

[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
Hey Chao,

Right now I'm using lionfish on both cores. I've got BIG max 1612 min 400. LITTLE max 1113 min 800. Big governor has some custom tunable settings which [MENTION=2593808]pijes[/MENTION] posted earlier in the thread. I've got my GPU msx 400 MHz min 220 with simple_ondemand and my I/O at internal row 1536 and external bfq 896 I'm running squid's kernel r16.

I've also got sysapps disabled through Titanium and Greenify in Aggressive Doze mode. I use Amplify to limit wakelocks and turn my radios off at night (except for mobile radio).
[X Play General] Chaotick:
Thank you ! I will try this setup after I get a few days in with cm13 + squid kernel - latest build is very ood for me battery wise :)
[X Play General] stazz83:
Hi guys! Does anyone have trouble waking up the device while listening to music? I like to listen to Deezer, but occasionally I can't get the device promptly.

That used to happen to me on stock 6.0.1. With default settings of squids overclocked kernel it's better but I'm aiming to strike a fine balance between performance and battery consumption.

Any advice?
[X Play General] stazz83:
Stock 6.0.1 and Squid kernel default settings (interactive governor) work out just fine for me. I'm quite happy with the device's responsiveness and with 6 hours of screen-on time over 1.5 days.

No urgent need for tweaking, though I wouldn't mind a second opinion.
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Its easy. Download macrodroid free version and see below pictures.You can also change the trigger in whatever you like to flip,shake,proximity sensor close or far,slow wave,fast wave etc.
[X Play General] pijes:
I use AcDisplay to replace Moto Display. Now the screen only lights up when there are notifications or I wave my hand over the proximity sensor.
[X Play General] rober788:
i tryed the setup with lion fish (changed with kerner auditor) but after every call the screen is black, won`t light up anymore. Any solutions?
[X Play General] dev>null:
Are you sure you set both governors to lionfish in K.A.?
[X Play General] zenez:
So, what gpu governor is recommended for battery life on MXP? and what I/O sheduler? Im gonna try lionfish governor tweaked with the settings i read in this post

Im on MM 6.0.1, rooted, xposed with amplify, greenify, servicely and freeze the moto apps except the moto display, with this settings and interactive governor gives me around 4.5-5 of SOT
[X Play General] rober788:
I let the small one unchanged, i will try to set both on lionfish.
[X Play General] dev>null:
That bug happens when the governors are not set the same ;)

Or if you use intelliactive, which used to be bugged...

Do share your set up. Amazing stats :D
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Let me quess,its with the tweaked interactive governor and using a low screen brightness.:)
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
The setup is as follows:

Stock 6.0.1 retla

Greenify - Aggressive Doze mode enabled, and that's all!

Amplify - services, alarms, and wakelocks disabled. Most of the high-count ones I have disabled.

Titanium Backup - unnecessary sysapps disabled.

Kernel: squid r16 (no letter suffix)

Governor: Lionfish

BIG

Msx 1612

Min 400

Tunables (see attached screenshotsl

LITTLE

Max 1113

Min 800

Tunables are default as they cannot be reliably changed due to resetting after screen turns off. This is inherent to stock Android.

[X Play General] wojnar:
And is this cm13?
[X Play General] Chaotick:
I returned to stock 6.0.1 because of the best over all battery life for me and lack of drain. SOT was easily in the near 7 H. Will try these setting with future squid kernels and after a couple more nightlies :D
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
This is the reason why i dont use and need lionfish governor anymore. I tweaked the interactive governor using this guide http://xdaforums.com/nexus-5x/general/guide-advanced-interactive-governor-t3269557andand have 7/8 hours SOT with smooth performance. I was wondering why my old moto-g always have such a smooth performance and long battery life with only a 1,2 ghz quad core processor, so i took a look into the governor settings and used this as a base for the little cores.I also tweaked the big cores a little so they only are used when needed.

Im using stock rom 6.0.1. with squids kernel r16f and the only battery savers i use are greenify (only the user apps) and adaway.

Big cores min 200 and max 1706 and the little cores min 249 and max 1209.:laugh:

[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
Awesome dude!!! I've seen thst guide and might try it too. Can you post your interactive setup for the X Play? That'd be really helpful for so many users i bet. What are your tunables set to? And how many days do you get out of your device?

Please and thank you!
[X Play General] Chaotick:
[MENTION=7240937]XxMikeMasterxX[/MENTION] the setting you posted work for me on cm13 with squid kernel ( jumped on build april 20 and OTAed to 21 build - couldnt resist ;) ) Using Your settings with a few changes - using max cpu values 1708/1209 and not using titanium backup greenify and amlplify. Using 2G when possible with wi fi on when needed and device gps on only....saving where i can. Will post any interesting result :D
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
Cool man! Looking forward to it. I am interested to see if CM13 can get some better battery results. When I used it I barely got a day and a half.
[X Play General] SoundWave007:
Agree. I've been looking for most balanced between performance and battery life till I found the guide you mentioned. Really happy with my MXP right now.
[X Play General] Chaotick:
I noticed that stock Squid kernel lionfish settings vs squid kernel intelactive setting (basic) are similar in terms of performance and smoothness. Currently I am charging my MXP to fill with stock squid kernel lionfish settings and todays version of CM13. If I find out something interensting I will share it :)
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
Knowledge is power!
[X Play General] ViperX85:
Do you have problem with hispeed_freq setting refusing to stick to desired frequency?
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
This will always happen with the LITTLE cluster. Is it the BIG you're referring to?
[X Play General] ViperX85:
Yes, it's the big cluster. Little cluster has no problems on interactive governor but it has on lionfish.
[X Play General] Chaotick:
Moved back to stock due to lower stand by time during testing.
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Have had the same problem but works fine now .This is the fix:

-open kernel adiutor and change hispeed_freq to the desired speed you like.

-create a profile in kernel adiutor after changing the hispeed_freq.

-in kernel adiutor go to settings and press test (give it a delay of about 20 seconds) and completely quit kernel adiutor before the profile (script) applies.

-now before launching any app reboot your phone and the next reboot you can tweak without problems and settings wil stick.

It also helps to avoid this bug if you give the target load from the 1459200 speed a low target load.

[MENTION=5725023]Sickaxis79[/MENTION]

You da man. Thanks so much for posting yst another great alternate setup for the MXP.

How long is your charging cycle? 36 hours?
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
My pleasure.

I charge my phone 1 time a day.At night when not it measures around 90% deep sleep with this setup.

Im still tweaking and fine tuning, because i became addicted after reading the guide :D.

You can play with the different target load values and fine tune your device how you like it. You can let it ramp up slowly or fast and define which cpu speeds you wanna use most and for how long.The cool thing is you can tweak it for performance or extreme battery saving or the middle way.The setup from the little cores i just took over from my old moto-g after trying to tweak with my own settings with no nice results and tweaked it a bit to avoid ramping it up fast.
[X Play General] ViperX85:
Can you tell me how to set it to ramp up slowly? For example, when I'm opening an app the big CPU ramps up to the max (1708MHz) frequency and I would like to avoid that, say, it ramps up to 960 or 11136MHz. Is that possible?
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Yes,but remember it wil loose smoothness.Smoothness comes from the big cores on the mxp so they must act fast.The little cores are only used for background tasks and switching apps.Also when you lower the cpu speeds that are used it takes longer to calculate the task and eats more battery.Its speed vs longer load times (slower cpu speeds).Easiest is just lowering your max cpu speed,but you can also start with high target loads so its using the slow speeds to the max first ,but remember you will see a lot more micro stutters.

1344000:85 means all cpu speeds and higher getting a target load of 85%. You can add these lines to specify a higher target load to be sure these speeds only are used when it reaches 90% and higher loads.

After the 1344000:85 enter:

1459200:90 1497600:95 1612800:97 1708800:99

Now the 1708Mhz freq only kicks in when it reached a target load of 99%.You wil also see it is still used much because the phone calculated this is the best speed for this amount of load.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
Excellent. I've been fiddling with my phone too but what I found was, no matter what settings I use, with 4g data on, dual sim, the sot doesn't change noticeably. But when I use 1 sim n mostly wifi with auto brightness I get 7hrs sot which could be improved if the brightness is lowered. XDA is great. It's good see you all tweaking and sharing the settings[emoji106]
[X Play General] wojnar:
[MENTION=5725023]Sickaxis79[/MENTION]

Can you somehow share your setup thru kernel audiutor profile backup or any other way, so we can avoid mistype.

Thanks mate

Great work
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
I'm afraid its not possible.Ka doesn't support import and export profiles.When you enter 249000 instead of 249600 it doesnt mather much.When you check the info of your profile you wil see it just changed it automatically to 249600 in the profile. If kernel adiutor doesnt recognize a specific setting it just reverts to the last used settings before you tried to change it.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
[MENTION=5725023]Sickaxis79[/MENTION] I can't get the big core high-speed freq to stick. I tried your earlier solution but even after 4 trys I still can't get it to stick. Little cores seems to stick. Thanks for sharing your setup by the way[emoji106]
[X Play General] ViperX85:
I'm seeing worse battery life after trying this guide. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Are you using stock kernel?

I noticed after flashing squids kernel the 1459Mhz hispeed bug is almost gone and when it happens i just save a new profile press the "test" button and shutdown ka completely before it applies.Mostly i dont even have to reboot the phone to let it stick.

---------- Post added at 07:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

If you are a heavy user and play games or doing other heavy intense tasks you wont notice much difference.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
I'm on squid's r16. Once I set the hispeed freq and check back after a few seconds or using some app, it changes back to 1.4ghz. I tried fix a few more times but can't seem to get it to stick. Any other suggestions? I'm ready to try if anyone has got any.
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
Hey all,

Just wanted to share my most recent cycle with the settings I shared a few pages back. Feel free to ask for any guidance. I'll be happy to assist where I can. Keep in mind my usage context is minimal. I use WhatsApp, make phone calls, check XDA, and stream a lot of music. I record video so.etimes and send over mobile data. I rarely do any surfing on my phone and mostly test network speed when I do surf.

Anyway, feel free to comment or inquire. I maybe could have squeezed another 25 minutes SOT but then my phone wljld have shut down.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
Do you use moto display? Where are you from?
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
If the hispeed_freq reverts back after launching an app you have to reboot your phone first.

Have you tried this ?

-After changing the hispeed_freq back save it to a new profile to be sure.

-Go to settings and press "test"' and exit k.a. before the script applies. (swipe k.a. away from the multitask window)

-After the script applied and before launching any app just reboot your phone and wait for the script to apply again after the reboot.

Someone on the interactive governor guide also said he had problems tweaking because he used the experimental functions in greenify and he had to disable the "aggressive doze mode".Not sure if this helps but i hope so :)
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
Thank you! It sticks now!
[X Play General] XxMikeMasterxX:
I'm in Canada. I do use auto display and my brightness tends to be in the lower 40% of the slider.

This is what it's at right now. I find the phone brightness to be very high, even when set so low. It automatically adjusts to perfect levels even in direct sunlight.
[X Play General] ViperX85:
I don't play games at all. Mostly I use realy for Reddit, chrome, sometimes Twitter, g+ and that's about it.
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Strange. Normal your cpus with stock interactive settings are idling around 800 and 960mhz which should eat more power.With this your big cores idling around 200Mhz and little around 499/800Mhz which should save you some power when idling.Im already using another profile and trying to create one that ramp-up the cpu's a bit slower and hope it saves some more power. Stay tuned.:)

(Are you sure you're hispeed_freq is not switched back to 1459Mhz when using the profile)
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Busted my own SOT and was testing the "Ghostpepper" profile and trying to translate it for the mxp.I must admit most of the time i was playing with kernel adiutor and tweaking parameters the whole day and also did a bit of browsing using wifi,but i think im gonna keep this for permanent.Gonna fine tune a little more and post the profile later this week.
[X Play General] Chaotick:
Is this with stock cm/other kernel ? Looks very good - what is the drain when in doze or just not used? :)

[X Play General] Chaotick:
I got 4 % drop from full battery (100-96%) in about about 6 hours with CM 13 april 26 nightly build - spotify was downloading music. Just leaving the phone alone for an hour or so ....or during night is ok :)

The "ghostpepper" You mentioned is a governor profile ? Or settings for governor? How to apply these settings ?
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Ghostpepper is popular tweaked interactive governor profile designed for the nexus 5 and 6p.In short you just tell the phone what cpu speed to use when reaching a specific target_load. Its the same idea how a transmission in a car works. You just tell the phone when it must gear-up or gear-down.

Dualsim of single
[X Play General] ViperX85:
IDK but big cores jump too much no matter the target loads. hispeed sticks using the profile fix but only until I restart the phone, then it reverts to 1459 MHz.

EDIT: is there a way to make little cores jump faster and working more than big cores? Currently i'm using lionfish gov. and little cores are set to jump to 1209 MHz whenever i touch the screen (min 800 MHz - max 1209 MHz ,big cores are 533 MHz - 1708 MHz) and it's relatively smooth. I think it would be better to make little cores to do more work than big cores using interactive governor.

Thanks for sharing your settings and looking forward for more. :)
